Hong Kong'd

well, having had a month to muster up the motivation to write a new entry, i wish i could promise a great story. maybe it's been busy. perhaps i've been lazy. i can't remember, frankly, but i nonetheless apologize for the delay. i've received a few emails accusing me of dropping away. perhaps the autumns of asia have dropped me into oblivion. i meant not to turn incommunicado but i've been unable to help it. sorry.

david and i went on a journey to hong kong in october, and what i found most intriguing about the experience was its similarity to being back at home. lots of english in hong kong. lots of cantonese. everyone is quite friendly and the driving looks treacherous. it's so much like markham it's hard to believe.

but what a time! the bars seem to run all night and we didn't even find lan kwai fong (the incredible hedonistic party district) until the last night i was there. my liver pulses gently in healthy relief.

i'll try to get some pictures up soon. i wrote most of this blog entry earlier this month and saved it as a draft, forgetting to post it. the silence must be broken. expect more regular entries soon.

i am highly impressed with your photos, i just took the time to cruise through your flickr page! the fireworks ones are beautiful, and the a-bomb dome was chilling to look at. i can't even imagine what its like in person.

hope all is well, and that you had a great holiday :)
